Download or read book Liquid Crystal Colloids written by Igor Muševič and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-14 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the many concepts and discoveries in liquid crystal colloids contributed over the last twenty years and scattered across numerous articles and book chapters. It provides both a historical overview of the development of the field and a clear perspective on the future applications in photonics. The book covers all phenomena observed in liquid crystal colloids with an emphasis on experimental tools and applications of topology in condensed matter, as well as practical micro-photonics applications. It includes a number of spectacular manifestations of new topological phenomena not found or difficult to observe in other systems. Starting from the early works on nematic colloids, it explains the basics of topological defects in ordered media, charge and winding, and the elastic forces between colloidal particles in nematics. Following a detailed description of experimental methods, such as optical tweezing and particle tracking, the book eases the reader into the theoretical part, which deals with elastic deformation of nematic liquid crystals due to inclusions and surface alignment. This is discussed in the context of basic mean field Landau-de Gennes Q-tensor theory, with a brief explanation of the free-energy minimization numerical methods. There then follows an excursion into the topology of complex nematic colloidal structures, colloidal entanglement, knotting and linking. Nematic droplets, shells, handlebodies and chiral topological structures are addressed in separate chapters. The book concludes with an extensive chapter on the photonic properties of nematic dispersions, presenting the concept of integrated soft matter photonics and discussing the concepts of nematic and chiral nematic microlasers, surface-sensitive photonic devices and smectic microfibers. The text is complemented by a large bibliography, explanatory sketches and beautiful micrographs.

Download or read book Crystallization and Growth of Colloidal Nanocrystals written by Edson Roberto Leite and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-17 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the size, shape, and microstructure of nanocrystalline materials strongly impact physical and chemical properties, the development of new synthetic routes to nanocrystals with controlled composition and morphology is a key objective of the nanomaterials community. This objective is dependent on control of the nucleation and growth mechanisms that occur during the synthetic process, which in turn requires a fundamental understanding of both classical nucleation and growth and non-classical growth processes in nanostructured materials. Recently, a novel growth process called Oriented Attachment (OA) was identified which appears to be a fundamental mechanism during the development of nanoscale materials. OA is a special case of aggregation that provides an important route by which nanocrystals grow, defects are formed, and unique—often symmetry-defying—crystal morphologies can be produced. This growth mechanism involves reversible self-assembly of primary nanocrystals followed by reorientation of the assembled nanoparticles to achieve structural accord at the particle-particle interface, the removal of adsorbates and solvent molecules, and, finally, the irreversible formation of chemical bonds to produce new single crystals, twins, and intergrowths. Crystallization and Growth of Colloidal Nanocrystals provides a current understanding of the mechanisms related to nucleation and growth for use in controlling nanocrystal morphology and physical-chemical properties, and is essential reading for any chemist or materials scientist with an interest in using nanocrystals as building blocks for larger structures. This book provides a compendium for the expert reader as well as an excellent introduction for advanced undergraduate and graduate students seeking a gateway into this dynamic area of research.

Book excerpt: The majority of the contributions in this topically edited book stems from the priority program SPP 1113 "Photonische Kristalle" run by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), resulting in a survey of the current state of photonic crystal research in Germany. The first part of the book describes methods for the theoretical analysis of their optical properties as well as the results. The main part is dedicated to the fabrication, characterization and modeling of two- and three-dimensional photonic crystals, while the final section presents a wide spectrum of applications: gas sensors, micro-lasers, and photonic crystal fibers. Illustrated in full color, this book is not only of interest to advanced students and researchers in physics, electrical engineering, and material science, but also to company R&D departments involved in photonic crystal-related technological developments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on both academic questions and applications of self-assembly of this extremely important class of compounds, this book discusses not only the self-organization of inorganic and magnetic nanocrystals, but also their collective optical and magnetic properties, as well as the in-situ fabrication of metal nanoparticles in solid matrices. Professor Marie-Paule Pileni, a distinguished leader in this field, is joined by a select group of expert authors to provide 14 chapters covering important aspects of self-assembled nanomaterials. The result is invaluable reading for inorganic and physical chemists, colloid chemists, polymer chemists, materials scientists, physicists, and chemical engineers working with and/or developing nanoparticle systems.

Download or read book Fabrication of Three-dimensionally Ordered Nanostructured Materials Through Colloidal Crystal Templating written by Lianbin Xu and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The void spaces in colloidal crystals (opals, three-dimensional (3D) close-packed arrays of silica nanospheres) and their replicas are used as templates in the fabrication of new nanostructured materials. 3D ordered nanomeshes and nanosphere arrays are readily obtained by chemical and/or electrochemical methods. Using silica opal templates, metals or polymers are infiltrated into the interstices between the silica nanospheres. Subsequent dissolution of the opals with HF solution produces open 3D mesh structures. Metal (such as Ni, Co, Fe, Pd, Au, Ag, and Cu) and conductive polymer (such as polyaniline) meshes are obtained by electrochemical deposition approach, while the nonconductive polymer (such as poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)) meshes are synthesized by chemical polymerization method. Some new types of meshes are fabricated by the conversion of metal meshes and polymer meshes. NiO meshes are formed by oxidizing Ni meshes in the air. The NiO meshes exhibit higher volume occupation fraction than Ni meshes and the nanocrystalline sizes of NiO particles can be adjusted by the oxidation temperature. Due to the mechanical flexibility of polymer meshes, the compression of PMMA meshes produces deformed PMMA meshes which contain oblate pores. These meshes can be again served as templates to prepare new types of colloidal crystals (nanosphere arrays) and specific nanocomposites. By the use of poorly conductive NiO mesh or PMMA mesh arrays as templates, 3D periodic metal nanosphere arrays, such as those of Ni, Co, Au and Pd, are readily fabricated by the electrodeposition method. Metal/NiO or Metal/PMMA composites can also be obtained if the templates are left intact. The magnetic behavior of metal (such as Ni and Co) meshes and sphere arrays has been investigated. These nanoscale arrays show significantly enhanced coercivities compared with bulk metals, due to the size effect of the nanometer dimensions of the components in meshes and sphere arrays. Angle-dependent magnetic properties of Ni and Co sphere array membranes exhibit out-of-plane anisotropy.
